Hot take, but it isn't actually that impressive that Queen Elizabeth II has been reigning for 70 years, considering the fact that she is the first monarch in English history to have access to modern medicine, vaccines, hygiene, food and also never needed to attack an enemy on the frontline on horseback.
All I'm saying is that Ramses II reigned almost as long IN THE BC, having access to NONE of that while actually needing to attack his enemies on the frontlines on horseback (well, chariot to be precise).
